Tapestry (Don McLean) — аккорды на гитаре

G Every G/F# thread of Em creation is held in Am7 position

by C still other strands of things D living.

G In an G/F# earthly tapestry Em hung from the skyline

Am7 of smouldering cities so C gray and so vulgar,

G as not G/F# to be satisfied with their Em own negativity

Am7 but needing to C touch all the D living as G well.

G Every G/F# breeze that blows Em kindly is one Am7 crystal breath

we C exhale on the blue diamond D heaven.

G As G/F# gentle to touch as Em the hands of the Am7 healer.

Am7 As soft as farewells C whispered over the coffin.

G We’re G/F# poisoned by venom Em with each breath Am7 we take,

Am7 from the brown C sulphur chimney D and the G black highway snake.

G Every G/F# dawn that breaks Em golden is held in Am7 suspension

like C the yoke of the egg in D albumen.

G Where G/F# the birth and the Em death of unseen Am7 generations

Am7 are interdependent in vast C orchestration

G and G/F# painted in colors Em of tapestry Am7 thread.

Am7 When the dying C are born and the D living G are dead.

G Every G/F# pulse of your Em heartbeat is one Am7 liquid moment

that C flows through the veins of D your being.

G Like a G/F# river of life Em flowing on since Am7 creation.

Am7 Approaching the sea with C each new generation.

G You’re G/F# now just a Em stagnant and rancid Am7 disgrace

Am7 that is rapidly C drowning the D whole human G race.

G Every G/F# fish that swims Em silent, every bird Am7 that flies freely,

every C doe that steps D softly.

G Every G/F# crisp leaf that Em falls, all the Am7 flowers that grow

Am7 on this colourful tapestry, C somehow they know.

G That if G/F# man is allowed Em to destroy all they Am7 need.

Am7 He will soon C have to pay with D his life, G for his greed.
